Welcome to the internal documentation for BoredOS! This directory contains detailed guides on how the OS functions, how to build it, and how to develop applications for it.
|
|
|
|
## 📚 Table of Contents
|
|
|
|
The documentation is organized into three main categories:
|
|
|
|
### 1. 🏗️ [Architecture](architecture/)
|
|
Explains the logical layout of the kernel and internal components.
|
|
- [`Core`](architecture/core.md): Kernel source layout and the boot process (Limine, Multiboot2).
|
|
- [`Memory`](architecture/memory.md): Physical Memory Management (PMM) and Virtual Memory Management (VMM).
|
|
- [`Filesystem`](architecture/filesystem.md): Virtual File System (VFS) and the RAM-based FAT32 simulation.
|
|
- [`Window Manager`](architecture/window_manager.md): How the built-in Window Manager natively handles graphics, events, and compositing.
|
|
|
|
### 2. 🔨 [Building and Deployment](build/)
|
|
Instructions for compiling the OS from source.
|
|
- [`Toolchain`](build/toolchain.md): Prerequisites and cross-compiler setup (`x86_64-elf-gcc`, `nasm`, `xorriso`).
|
|
- [`Usage`](build/usage.md): Understanding the Makefile targets, QEMU emulation, and flashing to bare metal hardware.
|
|
|
|
### 3. 🚀 [Application Development](appdev/)
|
|
The SDK and toolchain guides for creating your own `.elf` userland binaries.
|
|
- [`SDK Reference`](appdev/sdk_reference.md): Explanation of the custom `libc` wrappers (`stdlib.h`, `string.h`) and system calls.
|
|
- [`UI API`](appdev/ui_api.md): Drawing on the screen, creating windows, and polling the event loop using `libui.h`.
|
|
- [`Widget API`](appdev/widget_api.md): High-level UI components like buttons, textboxes, and scrollbars using `libwidget.h`.
|
|
- [`Custom Apps`](appdev/custom_apps.md): A step-by-step tutorial on writing a new graphical C application, editing the Makefile, and bundling it into the ISO.
|
|
- [`Example Apps`](appdev/examples/README.md): A collection of sample C applications ranging from basic terminal output to advanced TCP networking.
|
|
- [`Grapher`](appdev/grapher.md): Full reference for the built-in mathematical graphing application — equation syntax, keyboard controls, architecture, and configuration.
